Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Incredibly kind, caring, and thorough
My daughter has been a regular at the dentist since she was very young (soft teeth). I was lucky enough to find Dr Thaker who knew exactly how to manage her fears and put her at ease. Every appointment is tear free and the job gets done. I am forever grateful for Dr Thaker.
